Chapter 79: I was born as a member of the Ji family, and I will die as a ghost of the Ji family
“I heard that kid from my family say a few days ago that Xiaolan has done something big,” someone teased with a smile.
"If you ask me, it's a great job. In recent years, with the rise of the country's financial sector, many pseudo-wealthy families and upstarts have flooded into Beijing and Hong Kong. They have all the trappings but no real substance. Their behavior is comparable to that of the nouveau riche, who are vulgar, rude, and arrogant. If they don’t teach them a lesson, the ecological environment of the Beijing-Hong Kong financial circle will be ruined by them.”
Ji Hongyi stood aside, folding his hands on the golf club, looking at Ji Lan, the gentleness in his eyebrows gave people the illusion that Ji Lan was his biological daughter: "The younger generation's matters should be dealt with the younger generation's way. deal with."
Then his eyes fell on Ji Lan: "Lan Lan, come here."
"Yuanhe Trust, Mr. Wu."
"Hello Uncle Wu."
"Weihe Construction Investment, Mr. Hua."
"Hello, Uncle Hua."
…………
"Who says it isn't?"
After Ji Lan said hello, someone picked up the topic: "Once adults intervene in the children's affairs, the taste changes. Who doesn't have a few adults to support them?"
The Chen family has gradually declined over the years. If it weren't for Chen Yan's occasional small projects to support it, the company would have collapsed long ago. Now it is not even a second-rate wealthy family.
It's a bit unreasonable to demand money from others and hurt their children.
"Here, let's play," Ji Hongyi handed the club in his hand to Ji Lan.
She reached out to take it, walked aside, tightened her core and bent slightly. Her eyes went back and forth between the ball and the hole several times, then she raised her hand and hit the hole in one.
Almost instantly, there was silence all around. Four or five seconds later, Ji Hongyi took the lead in applauding.
There were endless compliments and admirations at the scene.
"Tiger father has no dog daughter! The last time I saw a hole-in-one was when Mr. Ji was young."
Ji Hongyi's face flushed, and he walked over and patted Ji Lan's shoulder. His joy could not be concealed, and he reached out to greet Sun Luo: "Come on, give me a tip, everyone who sees you will be rewarded."
"You should have a good drink tonight,"
People live with a face, and trees live with a skin. Ji Lan knows very well what Ji Hongyi's point is. Some people regard face as more important than life. In these years, she has never been abandoned by the Ji family, except for herself. He has outstanding looks and knows the current affairs. He tries his best to earn face for them when he goes out.
This point is also deeply recognized by Ji Hongyi.
This game ended at half past ten. Ji Lan spent the whole night serving at the wine table, pouring wine, serving dishes, and cheering. He didn't smoke or drink at the end of the night, but he still smelled of tobacco and alcohol.
Say goodbye to all the bosses and get into Ji Hongyi's Cadillac.
Silence fell in the carriage.
Until Ji Hongyi took out his cigar, thought about it, then put it down as if he remembered something: "Does everyone admit it?"
"I admit it," Ji Lan nodded in response, took a bottle of mineral water from the door, opened it and handed it to him.
Ji Hongyi's eyes rose, showing a hint of appreciation: "Favors in shopping malls are all about exchanges of interests. One meeting means nothing, but if you can remember the person, it will be much easier to show your face in front of them when you meet them in the future."
"I understand, thank you dad."
"Yeah!" The mineral water in Ji Hongyi's hand fell. Ji Lan took it, closed the lid tightly and put it back by the door.
"On the surface, the Ji family looks luxuriant and respected by others, but in fact, many people are looking at it. If you are not careful, everything will be lost. If it collapses from the inside first and gives others an opportunity, then the Ji family will really That’s it.”
There was a lot of wine on the table, white and red mixed in. Ji Hongyi was leaning on the back seat with his eyes closed to relax, but even so, he still didn't forget to hit Ji Lan.
His words were undoubtedly a reminder to her and let her know her position. Everyone in the Ji family has a strong point in their hearts. Ji Hongyi, as the eldest son, wants to take charge of the family. Ji Mingda is close behind him. Although he is not ambitious, he has many small thoughts secretly.
As for the old lady, she not only wanted her eldest son and second son to be obedient, but also wanted to restore her relationship with her third son.
You can have your cake and eat it too.
At the end of the day, Ji Hongyi's misty eyes opened slightly, and he glanced at Ji Lan: "With all the people in the nest, how can there be any eggs left intact?"
"Father, don't worry, I will be born as a member of the Ji family, and die as a ghost of the Ji family."
It’s just to show loyalty, who wouldn’t?
You can make people believe in you by just talking. This is the lowest cost thing.
At half past eleven, Ji Lan sent Ji Hongyi back to Ji's house, and was just about to ask the driver to take him away.
Ji Hongyi leaned on the wall and turned around drunkenly to look back at her: "Stay at home tonight."
"That's not appropriate, Dad."
"What's inappropriate?" Ji Hongyi's voice was strong and domineering. "This is your home, and your room has been tidied up."
Ji Lan followed Ji Hongyi in. In the living room, Ji Rourou's face was filled with grievances. Seeing Ji Lan and Ji Hongyi come in, she couldn't take back the look on her face.
"Drink too much?" Deng Yi saw Ji Hongyi's steps coming in and held him up.
Then his harsh eyes fell on Ji Lan: "You don't know how to persuade."
Ji Hongyi stretched out his hand to push Deng Yi away and took off his suit: "Can she, a little girl, persuade her to deal with what happened at the wine table?"
"Has the room been tidied up?"
Deng Yi pursed his lips and nodded, suppressing the displeasure in his heart: "It's ready."
The Ji family had this scandal, so they had to put on a show for the outside world to see.
It is inevitable that Ji Lan will come back to live, even if it is short-lived, but he cannot give outsiders a chance to speak.
Ji Hongyi grunted, his eyes falling on Ji Rourou, he didn't even bother to pretend to be basic warmth, he said "I'm going to wash up" and left.
Ji Lan went upstairs and saw that the room that Ji Rourou had been tossing was restored again. He couldn't explain the feeling in his heart. They would only be kind to him when they were pursuing profits.
She crossed her arms and leaned against the dresser, looking around at the furnishings in her bedroom, which were exactly the same as her previous room.
"Ji Lan, you are only back temporarily. You will treat this place as your home."
"I'm back for the time being," Ji Lan turned slightly and looked at Ji Rourou who was standing at the door: "Does this mean that even if you are a biological child, you are not doing well in this family."
"Who wouldn't be quick to talk?"
"Did I make a mistake?" Ji Lan shrugged indifferently: "If you really take the position of Miss Ji, I will never be able to enter this room in my life."
"Now that I've come in, I'll prove it to you," Ji Lan said, shaking his head: "It's really not that good."
Ji Rourou's back stiffened suddenly, she didn't want to admit it, but it seemed that was the case.
"Ji Lan, does the Ji family give you these small favors, do you think this is recognition?" In the past few months when Ji Rourou returned to the Ji family, she also saw through a lot of things in human relationships. Blood ties and family ties must be put before interests. Swing back.
Everyone is an object.
"Have you grown up? What you say has begun to have depth," Ji Lanhun brushed his nails carelessly: "Ji Rourou, a few months in the Ji family will make you understand this truth. Guess I'm living here. Twenty years, do you know this?”
